Great food, GF drink and dessert choices! Classic tunes playing, and the waiter (Jose) was great! All around, a great dinner!

Impressive amount of variety of choices. We ordered the fish & chips, chicken bites and cheese curds. All were delicious and served hot.

Incredibly celiac friendly. All sandwiches served on GF bread and they have a dedicated fryer. So many options even for my 6 year old celiac.

All of the menu is pretty much gluten free (fryer, all the buns and wraps are also gluten free- no “normal” buns at all). There are a few items esp under dessert that are not celiac friendly but I enjoyed a classic cheeseburger and fries here today. No post meal issues so ready to post here to definitely swing by here! We climb in the area and it’s so nice to have a pub to go to after hours of rock climbing and gorge ourselves on all the foods (:

GF items were clearly marked on the menu. They have a dedicated GF fryer. Got the fish and chips, and I was so happy to finally be able to get this item since being diagnosed over a year ago. The sauce that came with it was fantastic, as was the rest of the food. Also got the electrify beer (which is GF)- it was so good I bought some cans to take home. Did not get sick and enjoyed my meal. Definitely recommend!

Get the fish and chips w gochujang tartar sauce! Best GF batter I’ve had. All the sauces are so creative and delicious. The chicken bites were just ok- very thin breading- but the coriander cream sauce served with it was amazing. Good GF Hazy IPA, bought a four pack to go.
